why couldn't they have just told me? I would have gone and taken the piranha! instead they think it is better to kill 1000's of fish? really?

What happened? parential controls wont let me see the site

 

[snakeguy101]

two RBP's were found in a lake so the FWC dumps toxins into it to kill ALL of the fish in that lake.

Idiots. You nuke the whole biotope just to get the last two pirhanna. I'll be nasty gramming these idiots shortly.

in that entire video i didnt see a single dead pirahna, just natives and a cichla. way to go FWC

Wait...let me get this straight. They are worried about the pirhanna killing other fish so they kill everything just to make sure the "evil pirhanna" are dead?!?! Who the hell came up with that idea? Morons!

They could of sexed the ones they found to make sure that they weren't breeding. It seems like they are killing ants with a shotgun approach.

I don't blame them, i don't know if piranha could survive in florida, but why take that chance?

2 fish connot create a breeding poulation the amount of inbreeding that would occur over the next generations would eliminate the piranhas

it would take a population of atleast 50 or so to create enough genetic diversity to sustain the population for future generations

how were they supposed to know that there were only two fish in the pond? i know that its pretty unlikely to get a substantial population from a landlocked pond, but still better to be safe than sorry
